Biography

Flashback to 2010, when a few high-spirited youths lock themselves in a rehearsal space to become — well, the next big thing, of course! Soon, there are ludicrous amounts of eyeliner, sunglasses galore, a red snakeskin coat (fake, back off, PETA), self-imposed labels like ›glam rock reborn‹ and aliases like ›Luke McLovin‹.
